The content of this video is general information only.


This episode unpacks how nutrition shapes longevity and healthspan, highlighting what to eat, what to avoid, and small changes that make a big impact.


Key Points: 

  • Eat more of the good stuff: prioritise whole foods, plants, and fibre-rich meals for long-term health

  • What to cut back on: ultra-processed foods and excess sugar accelerate ageing and disease risk

  • Nutrition meets biology: gut health, inflammation, and fasting all play key roles in ageing well

  • Small changes, big gains: even one positive dietary shift, like adding more veggies can make a considerable difference to your health.
